Default insert running time on excel

"hungry burger"
Is there any way to see the current time in excel? cant seem to find an
available function in excel.

I know that this might require some VBA scripts as I would like to see the
seconds "ticking" on a sheet.


Whether you want a clock, a count down timer, or a elapsed timer, Excel
is not going to do it efficiently, and for a clock you would see the difference
between the clock in Excel and your clock in the lower right corner.

You can get clocks that run in a browser. You can show seconds on the
Task Bar Clock by using TClockEx without turning your expensive computer
into a wall clock. For more information on all of the above see
